[0012] Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description of the drawings, the same or similar parts are denoted by the same or similar reference numerals.

[0013] However, it should be noted that the drawings are schematic and the ratios of the dimensions may differ from the actual ones. Therefore, the specific dimensions should be determined with reference to the following explanation. In addition, the drawings may of course include parts with different dimensional relationships or ratios.

[0014] [Disclosure Summary] The display device according to the disclosure summary includes a management unit that manages member information regarding members belonging to an organization, and a control unit that performs display control to display a distribution of the members in a mapping space defined by category axes represented by the member information based on the member information, and the control unit displays icons of candidates who do not have the member information and places the icons of the candidates in the mapping space without inputting candidate information regarding the candidates.

[0015] One aspect of the display method relating to the disclosure summary includes a step A of managing member information regarding members belonging to an organization, and a step B of executing display control to display a distribution of the members in a mapping space defined by category axes represented by the member information based on the member information, the step B including a step of displaying icons of candidates who do not have the member information, and a step of placing the icons of the candidates in the mapping space without inputting candidate information regarding the candidates.

[0016] The display program relating to the disclosure summary causes a computer to execute step A of managing member information regarding members belonging to an organization, and step B of executing display control to display the distribution of the members in a mapping space defined by category axes represented by the member information based on the member information, and step B includes a step of displaying icons of candidates who do not have the member information, and a step of placing the icons of the candidates in the mapping space without inputting candidate information regarding the candidates.

[0017] In the outline of the disclosure, an icon of a candidate who does not have member information is displayed, and the icon of the candidate is placed in the mapping space without inputting candidate information about the candidate. With this configuration, since the icon of the candidate is placed in the mapping space without inputting candidate information about the candidate, it is possible to add a virtual human resource as a new candidate in a simple manner, and it is possible to appropriately simulate an organization.

[0018] In the disclosure summary, the organization may be an entity with legal personality or an entity without legal personality. The members may be persons who have an employment relationship with the organization or persons who have a contractual relationship with the organization. Although not particularly limited, the following will be taken as an example of a case where the organization is a legal entity and the members are employees or officers (hereinafter, simply referred to as employees).

[0019] [Embodiment] (Display System) A display system according to an embodiment will be described below. Fig. 1 is a diagram showing a display system 100 according to an embodiment.

[0020] 1, the display system 100 includes one or more terminals 10 and a display device 30. The terminals 10 and the display device 30 are connected by a network 200. Although not particularly limited, the network 200 may include the Internet or an intranet. The network 200 may include a local area network, a mobile communication network, or a VPN (Virtual Private Network).

[0021] The terminal 10 is a terminal used by a user who wants to view information about employees. The terminal 10 may be a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a personal computer, or other terminal. The user may be an employee. The information about employees may include the distribution of employees in a mapping space, which will be described later. The display mode of the terminal 10 will be described later (see FIGS. 4 to 6, etc.).

[0022] The display device 30 executes display control to display information about employees. The display device 30 may be installed on-premise on an intranet owned by a corporation, or may be installed off-premise (in cloud format) via the Internet. As described above, the information about employees may include the distribution of employees in a mapping space described below. Details of the display device 30 will be described later (see FIG. 2).

[0023] (display device) The display device according to the embodiment will be described below. Fig. 2 is a diagram showing a display device 30 according to the embodiment.

[0024] As shown in FIG. 2, the display device 30 includes a communication unit 31, a management unit 32, and a control unit 33.

[0025] The communication unit 31 is configured by a communication module. The communication module may be a wireless communication module conforming to a standard such as IEEE802.11a / b / g / n / ac / ax, LTE, 5G, or 6G, or may be a wired communication module conforming to a standard such as IEEE802.3.

[0026] The communication unit 31 executes communication with the terminal 10. For example, the communication unit 31 transmits to the terminal 10 display data for displaying information about employees.

[0027] The management unit 32 is configured with a storage medium such as an SSD (Solid State Drive) or an HDD (Hard Disk Drive), and stores various information.

[0028] In the embodiment, the management unit 32 constitutes a management unit that manages member information (hereinafter, employee information) related to employees belonging to a corporation. For example, as shown in Fig. 3, the employee information includes an icon, a name, a department, a position, a ratio, a date of joining, an evaluation, a grade, a salary amount, a date of joining the company, a recruitment route, and the like.

[0029] In an embodiment, a specific employee may be assumed to have two or more roles. The role may be defined by at least one of the department to which the employee belongs and the position held by the employee. In other words, it is assumed that an employee will hold two or more jobs or roles. For example, it may be assumed that an employee will hold two or more positions, or that an employee will hold two or more departments.

[0030] Furthermore, employees may include employees who work for a set number of working hours determined by the corporation (for example, a set number of working hours per week is 37.5 hours (7.5 hours x 5 days)). Such employees may be referred to as full-time employees for convenience. Employees may include employees who work for a portion of a set number of working hours determined by the corporation (for example, a set number of working hours per week is 15 hours (7.5 hours x 2 days)). Alternatively, employees may include employees who work for a portion of a set amount of work determined by the corporation. The employment status of such employees may be seconded, dispatched, contracted, etc. Such employees may be referred to as part-time employees for convenience.

[0031] Here, the ratio of the working hours of part-time employees to the predetermined working hours or the ratio of the workload of part-time employees to the predetermined workload may be referred to as a specific ratio for convenience. The number of part-time employees may be counted reflecting the specific ratio. For example, if the specific ratio of part-time employees is 0.2, the number of part-time employees may be counted as 0.2 people. On the other hand, the salary amount and labor costs of part-time employees may be counted without reflecting the specific ratio. For example, even if the specific ratio of part-time employees is 0.2, the salary amount and labor costs of part-time employees may be counted as they are.

[0032] The icon is an image of the target employee. The employee image may be an actual image of the employee (e.g., a face image or a bust-up image) or an avatar image of the employee. The employee image may also be a photograph or image arbitrarily selected by the employee.

[0033] The name may be the employee's full name or may be the employee's nickname, or may include both the full name and the nickname.

[0034] A department is a department to which an employee belongs. A department may be hierarchical information such as a headquarters, a division, a section, a group, etc. For example, under Headquarters A, there may be Divisions A1, A2, A3, etc., and under Division A1, there may be Divisions A11, A12, etc. Similarly, under Headquarters B, there may be Divisions B1, B2, B3, etc., and under Division B1, there may be Divisions B11, B12, etc. If an employee is expected to hold multiple positions, two or more departments may be managed for the employee, such as Division #1, Division #2, etc. If an employee is not expected to hold multiple positions, only Division #1 may be managed.

[0035] A position is a position that an employee will hold. Positions may include division chief, department manager, section manager, group leader, and the like. If an employee is expected to hold multiple positions, two or more positions may be managed for the employee, such as position #1, position #2, ..., etc. If an employee is not expected to hold multiple positions, only position #1 may be managed.

[0036] The percentage is the percentage that an employee works in the relevant department or position. If an employee is expected to hold multiple roles, two or more percentages may be managed for the employee, such as percentage #1 that the employee works in department #1 or position #1, percentage #2 that the employee works in department #2 or position #2, ... If an employee is not expected to hold multiple roles, only percentage #1 (e.g., 100%) may be managed. Percentage #1, percentage #2, ... are examples of the percentages that a particular employee works in each of two or more roles.

[0037] Here, if an employee is a full-time employee, the ratios may be managed so that the sum of ratio #1, ratio #2, ... is 100%. If an employee is a part-time employee, the ratios may be managed so that the sum of ratio #1, ratio #2, ... does not reach 100%. For example, if the regular working hours per week are 37.5 hours (7.5 hours x 5 days), and the working hours per week of a part-time employee are 15 hours (7.5 hours x 2 days), the total ratio of part-time employees may be expressed as 40% (15 / 37.5).

[0038] The affiliation date is the date on which the employee joined the relevant department. If an employee is expected to hold multiple positions, two or more affiliation dates may be managed for the employee, such as affiliation date #1 when the employee started to belong to department #1, affiliation date #2 when the employee started to belong to department #2, .... If an employee is not expected to hold multiple positions, only affiliation date #1 may be managed. The affiliation date may be used to determine the number of years the employee has belonged to the relevant department. The number of years of affiliation may be interpreted as the number of years of employment or the number of years spent in the department. The number of years of affiliation (number of years of employment or number of years spent in the department) may be managed together with the affiliation date.

[0039] The evaluation is an evaluation of an employee. The evaluation may be, but is not limited to, an evaluation of the employee's performance, achievements, abilities, or sentiment. The evaluation may include a self-evaluation or a peer-evaluation.

[0040] The grade may be a grade classified according to the abilities required of employees, etc. Although not particularly limited, the grade may be a grade related to a job function, a job, or a role.

[0041] The salary is the amount of salary paid to an employee. The salary may include social insurance premiums paid by the corporation. In addition, personnel expenses including statutory welfare expenses and employee benefit expenses may be managed in addition to the salary. The salary and personnel expenses are examples of resource information related to employees.

[0042] The joining date is the date on which an employee joined a corporation. The joining date may be used to determine the length of service, etc. The length of service may be managed together with the joining date.

[0043] The recruitment route is a route by which an employee was recruited. The recruitment route may include a type such as new graduate recruitment, mid-career recruitment, etc. The recruitment route may also include a type such as a medium, service, or job site used in recruiting an employee.

[0044] Although omitted in FIG. 3, the management unit 32 may manage the appointment date. The appointment date is the date on which the employee was appointed to the relevant position. If it is expected that the employee will hold multiple positions, two or more appointment dates may be managed for the employee, such as appointment date #1 when the employee was appointed to position #1, appointment date #2 when the employee was appointed to position #2, etc. If it is not expected that the employee will hold multiple positions, only appointment date #1 may be managed. The appointment date may be used to determine the number of years in office, etc. The number of years in office may be managed together with the appointment date.

[0045] Although omitted in Fig. 3, the management unit 32 may manage the qualifications or skills possessed by employees. The management unit 32 may manage the gender of employees. The management unit 32 may manage the dates on which employees acquired their qualifications. The management unit 32 may manage character strings such as comments from related parties about employees.

[0046] The control unit 33 may include at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured by a central processing unit (CPU), a micro processing unit (MPU), a graphics processing unit (GPU), one or more integrated circuits, one or more discrete circuits, or a combination thereof.

[0047] In an embodiment, the control unit 33 constitutes a control unit that performs display control to display the distribution of employees in a mapping space defined by category axes represented by the employee information based on the employee information managed by the management unit 32.

[0048] The control unit 33 displays the icon of a candidate who does not have employee information. The control unit 33 places the icon of the candidate in the mapping space in a state where no candidate information about the candidate is input. Details of the display control (i.e., the display mode of the terminal 10) will be described later (see Figs. 4 to 6, etc.).

[0049] (Display mode) The display mode according to the embodiment will be described below. Fig. 4 is a diagram showing the display mode of the terminal 10 according to the embodiment. The display device 30 (control unit 33) described above executes display control to display the display mode shown in Fig. 4.

[0050] First, the display mode includes a mapping space 60 defined by an axis of categories represented by employee information, as shown in Fig. 4. In Fig. 4, departments are illustrated as the vertical axis, and ranks are illustrated as the horizontal axis.

[0051] Although FIG. 4 illustrates a case in which the mapping space 60 is defined by two category axes, the mapping space 60 may be defined by one category axis, or may be defined by three or more category axes.

[0052] Second, the display manner includes a distribution of employees in a mapping space 60, as shown in Fig. 4. The employees in the mapping space 60 may be represented by icons 40 of the employees (e.g., aa#1). The icons 40 may include a first icon showing an image of the employee and a second icon showing a character string showing the employee's name. In such a case, the size of the second icon may be larger than the size of the first icon.

[0053] For example, as shown in the enlarged view of icon 40 in FIG. 4, the area S2 of the second icon may be larger than the area S1 of the first icon. The area S1 may be defined by the area of ​​a shape (such as a circle or an ellipse) arranged to surround the employee's image. The area S1 may also be the area of ​​an area in which an image or the like used for the trimmed employee's image is arranged. The area S2 may be defined by a shape (such as a rectangle) arranged to surround a character string indicating the employee's name. The area S2 may also be the area of ​​an area in which the employee's name is input. Alternatively, the width of the second icon may simply be larger than the width of the first icon.

[0054] Here, the second icon (a string of characters indicating the employee's name) may be arranged along a direction parallel to the horizontal axis, and the first icon (an image of the employee) may be arranged to the left of the first character of the employee's name (on the vertical axis side).

[0055] Here, the case where the employee icon 40 includes the first icon and the second icon has been exemplified, but the embodiment is not limited to this. The employee icon 40 may include only the first icon or only the second icon. For example, the employee icon 40 may include only a character string indicating the employee's name.

[0056] Third, the display mode displays a subject list 70 regarding subjects that can be placed in the mapping space 60, as shown in FIG.

[0057] The targets may include candidates who do not have employee information. The candidates may be considered to be fictitious personnel whose employee information is not managed by the management unit 32. The target list 70 may also include a candidate icon 71. The candidate icon 71 may include information indicating that no employee information is available or that the employee information is not managed by the management unit 32. The information indicating that no employee information is available or that the employee information is not managed by the management unit 32 may include a character string such as "candidate slot" as shown in FIG. 4. The information indicating that no employee information is available or that the employee information is not managed by the management unit 32 may include a symbol including "+" indicating that a new candidate is to be added.

[0058] The targets may include employees having employee information. Employees may be considered to be real personnel whose employee information is managed by the management unit 32. The target list 70 may include employee icons 72. The employee icons 72 may include character strings indicating the employee's name. The employee icons 72 may include an image of the employee. The employee icons 72 may include character strings indicating employee information (such as "G3" indicating the grade and "￥5,800,000" indicating the salary in FIG. 4).

[0059] Although not particularly limited, the candidate icon 71 may have the same display manner and configuration as the employee icon 72 in the mapping space 60 and the target list 70.

[0060] As described above, the display device 30 may display candidate icons 71 along with employee icons 72 in the target list 70.

[0061] Fourth, a specific employee (e.g., bb#1) may be displayed in a manner that makes it possible to distinguish whether or not the employee has two or more roles. The distinguishing manner may be a character string such as "concurrent position". For example, if employee bb#1 holds a concurrent position in department PPPP QQ#1 and Group #3 in department PPPP QQ#1, icon 40X of employee bb#1 may be displayed in the column for department PPPP QQ#1, and icon 40Y of employee bb#1 may be displayed in the column for Group #3 in department PPPP QQ#1. In such a case, icon 40X and icon 40Y may include a character string such as "concurrent position".

[0062] Although not particularly limited, if employee bb#1's primary role is department PPPP QQ#1 and employee bb#1's secondary role is Group #3 in department PPPP QQ#1, icon 40X may include a character string such as "primary role" and icon 40Y may include a character string such as "concurrent role." Note that a primary role is a role in which an employee's participation rate is relatively large, and a secondary role is a role in which an employee's participation rate is relatively small.

[0063] Although not particularly limited, it is conceivable that icon 40Y will not be displayed if Group #3 of department PPPP QQ#1 is not a display target. Even in such a case, icon 40X may include a character string such as "concurrent position" (or "principal position").

[0064] For part-time employees, the word "concurrently held" in the display mode may be read as "seconded," "dispatched," "contracted," or the like, depending on the employment status. In such a case, the display control of part-time employees may be expressed as shown below. The display device 30 may display employees who are engaged in work for only a part of the predetermined working hours or predetermined workload set by the corporation in the mapping space 60 in a manner that makes it possible to distinguish whether the working hours are less than the predetermined working hours or whether the workload is less than the predetermined workload. Here, part-time employees may be referred to as specific employees. In order to distinguish between employees who have two or more roles and part-time employees, employees who have two or more roles may be referred to as first specific employees, and part-time employees may be referred to as second specific employees.

[0065] Here, a case where concurrent positions can be set for employees has been exemplified, but the embodiment is not limited to this. Specifically, concurrent positions can also be set for candidates in the same way as for employees. The concurrent positions can be set by dragging and dropping the candidate's icon 73, or by using the editing screen 80, as described below. (Placing icons in the mapping space) The following describes the arrangement of icons in the mapping space 60 according to the embodiment. Figures 5 and 6 are diagrams showing the arrangement of icons in the mapping space 60 according to the embodiment.

[0066] As shown in FIG. 5, a case will be described in which the candidate icon 71 is dragged and then dropped in the mapping space 60.

[0067] First, the display device 30 may arrange the candidate's icon 71 in the mapping space 60 by dragging and dropping the candidate's icon 71 without inputting candidate information. Here, the arrangement may include an operation of moving the candidate's icon 71 to the mapping space 60 and then finalizing the arrangement of the candidate's icon 71 in the mapping space 60.

[0068] Hereinafter, in order to distinguish the candidate icon 71 in the mapping space 60 from the candidate icon 71 in the target list 70, the candidate icon 71 in the mapping space 60 will be referred to as the candidate icon 71M. The candidate icon 71M may have the same display form and configuration as the employee icon 40. Therefore, the candidate icon 71M may include only a character string indicating the candidate's name.

[0069] Secondly, when the icon 71 of the candidate is placed in the mapping space 60, the display device 30 may automatically generate a name of the candidate (for example, "Candidate 1" in FIG. 5) and display the generated name in the mapping space 60. The name of the candidate may be displayed as a part of the icon 71M of the candidate.

[0070] Here, the display device 30 automatically generates a name for the candidate that is different from the names of the members and candidates arranged in the mapping space 60. The display device 30 automatically generates the name for the candidate in a form that includes numbers that are assigned in ascending order in the order in which the candidates are arranged in the mapping space 60.

[0071] For example, assuming a case where two candidates are added, the automatically generated name of the first candidate may be "Candidate 1," and the automatically generated name of the second candidate may be "Candidate 2." Note that in a case where the name of the first candidate has been changed (for example, as explained in modification example 1 below, the name is changed from "Candidate 1" to "Front-end engineer"), when a second candidate is added, the name of the second candidate may be "Candidate 1."

[0072] Thirdly, when the candidate icon 71 is placed in the mapping space 60, the display device 30 manages information (candidate information) about the candidate corresponding to the candidate icon 71M placed in the mapping space 60. The display device 30 may manage information about the category axis corresponding to the candidate icon 71M (for example, in FIG. 5, department "Group3" and grade "G3") as candidate information based on the placement of the candidate icon 71M placed in the mapping space 60. The candidate information may have a data structure similar to that of employee information.

[0073] Fourth, when a candidate icon 71M is placed in the mapping space 60, the display device 30 may display a candidate icon 73 corresponding to the candidate icon 71M placed in the mapping space 60 in the target list 70.

[0074] Here, since the candidate icon 71 is an icon for adding a new candidate, the candidate icon 71 may continue to be displayed in the target list 70 even after one candidate icon 71 has been placed in the mapping space 60.

[0075] 6, the display device 30 may place a new candidate icon 71 in the mapping space 60 by dragging and dropping the candidate icon 71 without inputting candidate information. When the candidate icon 71 is placed in the mapping space 60, the display device 30 may automatically generate a name of the new candidate (for example, "Candidate 2" in FIG. 6) and display the generated name in the mapping space 60.

[0076] Although not specifically mentioned in Figures 5 and 6, the display device 30 may also place the employee icon 72 in the mapping space 60 by a predetermined operation (e.g., drag and drop) similar to that for the candidate icon 71.

[0077] That is, the display device 30 may place the member icon 72 in the mapping space 60 by a predetermined operation on the member icon 72, and may place the candidate icon 71 in the mapping space by a predetermined operation on the candidate icon 71. Here, the predetermined operation may include an operation of moving the icon 71 (or icon 72) into the mapping space 60 and then finalizing the placement of the icon 71 (or icon 72) in the mapping space 60.

[0078] (Action and Effects) In the embodiment, the display device 30 displays an icon 71 of a candidate who does not have employee information, and places the icon 71 of the candidate in the mapping space 60 without inputting candidate information about the candidate. According to such a configuration, since the icon 71 of the candidate is placed in the mapping space 60 without inputting candidate information about the candidate, it is possible to add a virtual human resource as a new candidate in a simple manner, and it is easy to perform an organization simulation.

[0079] In the embodiment, when the icon 71 of the candidate is placed in the mapping space 60, the display device 30 may automatically generate a name of the candidate and display the generated name in the mapping space 60. With such a configuration, it is possible to omit the effort of inputting the name of the candidate, who is a virtual human resource, and it is possible to easily perform a simulation of an organization including a virtual human resource allocation.

[0080] In an embodiment, the display device 30 may place a candidate icon 71 in the mapping space 60 by dragging and dropping the candidate icon 71. With such a configuration, a new candidate can be added in a simple and intuitive manner. The display device 30 may place an employee icon 72 in the mapping space 60 by dragging and dropping the employee icon 72. With such a configuration, an employee can be added in an intuitive manner.

[0081] In an embodiment, the display device 30 may place the candidate icon 71 and the employee icon 72 in the mapping space 60 by a common predetermined operation (e.g., drag and drop) of the candidate icon 71 and the employee icon 72. According to such a configuration, the candidate icon 71 can be placed in the mapping space 60 in the same manner as the employee icon 72, so that candidates can be added intuitively without distinguishing between candidates and employees.

[0082] Since there is no need to input the candidate's name again, it may be considered that the candidate's icon 71 can be arranged in the mapping space 60 in the same manner as the employee's icon 72. Alternatively, since the display mode and configuration of the candidate's icon 71 and the employee's icon 72 are similar, it may be considered that the candidate's icon 71 can be arranged in the mapping space 60 in the same manner as the employee's icon 72.

[0083] [Change Example 1] Modification 1 of the embodiment will be described below. Differences from the embodiment will be mainly described below.

[0084] In a first modification, as shown in FIG. 7, the display device 30 may display an editing screen 80 for editing candidate information related to a specific candidate by selecting the specific candidate.

[0085] When the name of a candidate is changed on the editing screen 80 shown in Fig. 7, the display device 30 may change the name of the candidate in the mapping space 60 as shown in Fig. 8. For example, when the name of a candidate is changed from "Candidate 1" to "Front-end Engineer" on the editing screen 80, the name of the candidate may be changed from "Candidate 1" to "Front-end Engineer" in the mapping space 60 (candidate icon 71M).

[0086] (Action and Effects) In the first modification, when the name of the candidate is changed on the candidate information editing screen 80, the display device 30 may change the name of the candidate in the mapping space 60. According to such a configuration, even when the name of the candidate is changed, the effort of changing the name of the candidate in the mapping space 60 can be simplified.

[0087] [Change Example 2] Modification 2 of the embodiment will be described below. Differences from the embodiment will be mainly described below.

[0088] In the second modification, as shown in FIG. 9, the display device 30 may display an editing screen 80 for editing candidate information related to a candidate.

[0089] When the candidate information corresponding to the category axis is edited on the editing screen 80 shown in Fig. 9, the display device 30 may change the arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M in the mapping space 60 based on the edited candidate information, as shown in Fig. 10. For example, when the candidate's job title is changed from "blank" to "department manager" on the editing screen 80, the arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M in the mapping space 60 may be changed from "other" to "department manager".

[0090] 10, the vertical axis shows an example of a department, and the horizontal axis shows an example of a job title. Although not particularly limited, if the job title is blank in the candidate information, the candidate's icon 71M may be placed in the "Other" job title in the mapping space 60.

[0091] In the second modification example, the editing of candidate information has been mainly described, but candidate information may also be deleted. When specific candidate information is deleted, the display device 30 may delete the candidate icon 71M corresponding to the specific candidate information from the mapping space 60. For example, the specific candidate information may be all candidate information related to a certain candidate that has been added to the mapping space 60. Although not particularly limited, the deletion of candidate information may be considered to be one aspect of editing candidate information.

[0092] (Action and Effects) In a second modification, when the candidate information corresponding to the category axis is edited on the editing screen 80, the display device 30 may change the arrangement of the candidate icons 71M in the mapping space 60. Such a configuration simplifies the effort of changing the arrangement of the candidate icons 71M in the mapping space 60, and allows an appropriate simulation of an organization to be performed while editing the candidate information.

[0093] [Change Example 3] The third modification of the embodiment will be described below. Differences from the embodiment will be mainly described below.

[0094] When the arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M is changed in the mapping space 60, the display device 30 may change the candidate information corresponding to the category axis based on the changed arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M. For example, when the arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M in the mapping space 60 is changed from "Other" to "Director", the job title in the candidate information may be changed from "Blank" to "Director".

[0095] In the third modified example, the change in the arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M has been mainly described, but the candidate's icon 71M may be deleted. When the candidate's icon 71M is deleted, the display device 30 may delete the candidate information corresponding to the candidate's icon 71M. For example, when the candidate information related to a specific classification item constituting the category axis in the mapping space 60 is deleted for a certain candidate (for example, the candidate information related to "department" and "position" shown in FIG. 10), the display device 30 may delete the candidate information corresponding to the candidate's icon 71M arranged in the specific classification item (for example, the "front-end engineer" icon shown in FIG. 10). Although not particularly limited, the deletion of the candidate's icon 71M may be considered to be one aspect of the change in the arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M.

[0096] (Action and Effects) In a third modification, the display device 30 may change the candidate information corresponding to the category axis when the arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M is changed in the mapping space 60. With such a configuration, it is possible to simplify the effort of changing the candidate information and to appropriately perform a simulation of the organization.

[0097] [Change Example 4] Modification 4 of the embodiment will be described below. Differences from the embodiment will be mainly described below.

[0098] In the fourth modification, the display device 30 manages the candidate information edited on the editing screen 80. As described in the third modification, the candidate information may be changed by changing the arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M in the mapping space 60.

[0099] The display device 30 may extract human resources corresponding to the candidate information from a database that manages information about real human resources, and display information about the extracted human resources.

[0100] In the fourth modification, the above-mentioned database may be a management unit (e.g., the management unit 32 of the display device 30) that manages employee information. That is, the display device 30 may extract human resources corresponding to the candidate information from among employees belonging to the corporation.

[0101] In the fourth modified example, the above-mentioned database may be a database that manages information on job seekers. A job seeker is a human resource that does not belong to a corporation. The database may be a database owned by an external company that introduces or dispatches human resources. The database may be a job seeker database (e.g., a talent pool) owned by a corporation that employs job seekers.

[0102] For example, the display device 30 may display an icon of the extracted human resource in the target list 70. The icon of the extracted human resource may have the same display form and configuration as the employee icon 72. The icon of the extracted human resource is an example of information related to the extracted human resource.

[0103] For example, the display device 30 may display the extracted human resources as a list different from the target person list 70. The list may include one or more extracted human resources. The list may be displayed on a screen or a tab different from the screen of the mapping space 60 and the target person list 70. The different screen may be a screen displayed in a pop-up format. The list may be displayed by a link to the same service as the service that displays the mapping space 60 and the target person list 70, or may be displayed by a link to a service different from the service that displays the mapping space 60 and the target person list 70. In addition, the different screen may be displayed using an external server (for example, a server owned by an external company that introduces or dispatches human resources) that provides a service different from the service provided by the display device 30. The list is an example of information regarding the extracted human resources.

[0104] The information on the extracted human resources does not have to be information on the human resources themselves. For example, the information on the extracted human resources may be a link that allows detailed information on the extracted human resources to be viewed. The information on the extracted human resources may be the number of human resources corresponding to the candidate (for example, "XX people exist in XX department" or "XX people exist in XX introduction service"). (Action and Effects) In a fourth modified example, the display device 30 may extract real personnel corresponding to the candidates added as virtual personnel, and display the extracted personnel as targets that can be placed in the mapping space 60. According to such a configuration, the candidates placed in the mapping space 60 can be treated as virtual positions, and the virtual positions can be easily replaced with real personnel, so that an organization can be appropriately simulated.

[0105] [Change Example 5] The fifth modification of the embodiment will be described below. The differences from the embodiment will be mainly described below.

[0106] In a fifth modified example, the item axes defining the mapping space 60 may include an aggregation item axis of the aggregation target. The display device 30 may display an aggregation result of the resource information related to employees for each of one or more classification items constituting the aggregation item axis.

[0107] For example, as shown in Fig. 11, the display device 30 may display the tabulated results of resource information related to employees (total in Fig. 11) in the mapping space 60. The tabulated results of resource information may include the total number of people (total number in Fig. 11), or may include the total amount of salary and labor costs (total labor costs in Fig. 11).

[0108] The aggregation results are aggregated for each classification item (for example, department PPPP, department PPPP QQ#1, Group#1 to Group#3 of department PPPP QQ#1, etc.). The classification items form the aggregation item axis (department in FIG. 11). The aggregation results may include the average value of salary amount and labor cost (average labor cost), the maximum value of salary amount and labor cost (maximum labor cost), the minimum value of salary amount and labor cost (minimum labor cost), etc. The aggregation results may include two or more labor costs selected from the total labor cost, average labor cost, maximum labor cost, and minimum labor cost. The aggregation results are not limited to these, and can be set as long as it is employee information managed by the management unit 32, such as evaluation.

[0109] For example, a method of tabulating resource information related to employees belonging to department PPPP will be described with reference to Fig. 11. In such a case, employees (employees aa#1 and aa#2) belonging to department PPPP are extracted based on the employee information managed by the management unit 32, and the number of employees and labor costs are tabulated for the extracted employees aa#1 and aa#2. In other words, the number of employees and labor costs are tabulated for the employees (employees aa#1 and aa#2) whose icons are displayed in the row of department PPPP in the mapping space 60.

[0110] In Fig. 11, a case where the aggregation item axis is the vertical axis is illustrated, but the aggregation item axis may be the horizontal axis. For example, the display mode may include the aggregation result of the resource information for each classification item on the horizontal axis (for example, grade in Fig. 11). Note that the aggregation item axis may be the vertical axis and the horizontal axis.

[0111] In the fifth modified example, when the candidate icon 71M is arranged in the mapping space 60, the resource information of the candidate corresponding to the candidate icon 71M may be reflected in the compilation result of the resource information based on the arrangement of the candidate icon 71M. When the candidate information regarding the candidate corresponding to the candidate icon 71M is edited or changed, the resource information of the candidate corresponding to the candidate icon 71M may be reflected in the compilation result of the resource information based on the edited or changed candidate information.

[0112] (Action and Effects) In the fifth modification, the display device 30 may display the tabulated results of resource information related to employees and candidates for each classification item. With such a configuration, it is possible to appropriately perform a simulation of an organization while considering the total number or labor costs after allocating virtual personnel. In addition, it is possible to reflect candidate information in the tabulated results of resource information without inputting the candidate information for the candidate's icon.

[0113] [Change Example 6] The sixth modification of the embodiment will be described below. The differences from the embodiment will be mainly described below.

[0114] In the sixth modified example, the category axes defining the mapping space 60 may include a specific category axis defined by a range of numerical values. When the arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M is changed in the mapping space 60, the display device 30 may change the candidate information corresponding to the specific category axis based on a representative value selected from the range of numerical values ​​defining the specific category axis corresponding to the changed arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M.

[0115] For example, the specific category axis may be years of employment, years of stay, years of service, salary, etc. The representative value may be the average, maximum, minimum, median, etc. of the employee's numerical values ​​included in the classification items constituting the specific category axis.

[0116] For example, when the specific item axis is salary and the candidate's icon 71M is placed in the category of 5 to 7 million, the display device 30 may change the salary amount of the candidate information to the representative value of the category of 5 to 7 million.

[0117] (Action and Effects) In the sixth modification, when the category axes defining the mapping space 60 include a specific category axis defined by a range of numerical values, the display device 30 may change the candidate information corresponding to the specific category axis based on a representative value selected from the range of numerical values ​​defining the specific category axis corresponding to the changed arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M. With this configuration, even if a numerical value cannot be uniquely determined by the arrangement of the candidate's icon 71M, the candidate information corresponding to the specific category axis can be provisionally set by a representative value, thereby making it possible to appropriately simulate the organization.

From this disclosure, various alternative embodiments, examples and operating techniques will become apparent to those skilled in the art.

[0119] In the above disclosure, the candidate icon 71 is included in the target list 70 together with the employee icon 72. However, the above disclosure is not limited to this. The candidate icon 71 does not have to be included in the target list 70. The candidate icon 71 may have a different display mode and configuration from the employee icon 72.

[0120] In the above disclosure, the management unit 32 is provided integrally with the display device 30. However, the above disclosure is not limited to this. The management unit 32 may be provided separately from the display device 30. In such a case, the display device 30 is connected to the management unit 32 via a network 200, and may receive data (e.g., employee information) managed by the management unit 32 from the management unit 32. The display device 30 may be read as the terminal 10, and the above-mentioned display control may be considered to be executed by the terminal 10 and the management unit 32. An application that runs on the terminal 10 may be provided as an application for executing the display control.

[0121] Although not specifically mentioned in the above disclosure, the employee information and candidate information may include option type information, numeric type information, date type information, period type information, and text type information.
